censoring other servers

agree with Bopl, before time it wasn't a problem but one day it is?

It's like me going into an Apple store and saying Samsung or Microsoft.

Advertising is when you are deliberately/purposefully marketing a product or something (in this case a server) by using rhetoric or other devices in order to create an appeal to their audience. Here, when you are simply just saying it, you are not using an devices or rhetoric. There is no spin to typing the name of the server, simply typing the server name on the internet does not have any bias/connotation to it that compels the audience to go to the server. Therefore, it is ridiculous to censor a server simply by mention.

If the player uses a server name and adds emphasis or praises, or tells another player what the other server has to offer, than it is reasonable to censor.

They don't want people mentioning other servers cause it's considered as advertising I guess, I'm basing it off of rules and reading a lot of threads that had different server names in them

I agree with showy- It’s sorta advertising and may get some young fellow brlns players to join the server, In this case it should be censored
